Square Enix talks Kingdom Hearts III

3DS game Kingdom Hearts 3D will apparently feature some form of connectivity with the still unannounced Kingdom Hearts III, although still little is known about either game.

Kingdom Hearts 3D – is it the start of a new chapter?

According to an interview in Japanese games mag Famitsu, as translated by website Andriasang , Kingdom Hearts 3D will allow you to control both Sora and Riku. The intention is to use all-new Disney worlds, so hopefully no more Hercules or Winnie the Pooh levels.The most intriguing revelation though is that the game will connect to Kingdom Hearts III in terms of both gameplay and story – with Kingdom Hearts 3D’s ending possibly leading directly into Kingdom Hearts III.Series producer Tetsuya Nomura also revealed that Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep Final Mix for the PSP will featuring a new ‘secret episode’ and will be out in Japan in January. It’ll probably stay there too as beyond the extra episode it’s really just the existing Western version of the game with Japanese subtitles.It’s still unclear what formats Kingdom Hearts III might be released on, with earlier rumours suggesting it was bound for the Wii. Recent comments about ‘high-definition graphics’ seem to suggest not, while others hint that it could actually be intended for the next generation of consoles – specifically the Wii 2.
